I really enjoy making cards. It's play time for me. If they don't come out perfect, it's no big deal.

Handmade Fish Under The Sea Cards
I didn't get to doing any stitching yesterday but I thought you would enjoy seeing a couple of cards that I made over the weekend:
The top one is for Scott's grandma and the bottom one is for my aunt.

May Take It Further Challenge - Day 2
The seams are stitched now so next I can start on some beading:
I also decided to go with the vintage crystal pin that I mentioned last week. I haven't sewn it down yet, just in case I decide to move it. I always wait until I'm almost done before sewing jewelry down.
Anyway, I should be able to stitch on this a little more later.
I also thought you would enjoy seeing the little cat doll that I made for my friend Kim:
I always send Kim a little something around Mother's Day.
And speaking of Mother's Day, this is one of the Mother's Day cards that I made:
I made 6 of these. The pansies are one of my vintage iron-on transfer designs. I printed them in B/W and then colored them with colored pencils. And of course you know, I had to add glitter! The leaves are paper leaves that I bought somewhere awhile back. They're for scrapbooking and cards.

Cross Stitch Fabric Grab Bags
My mom has cleared some more things out of her sewing room again. She asked me to sell some of her cross stitch fabric for her:
These grab bags and more can be found in my Etsy shop.

May Take It Further Challenge - Day 1
After visiting with my mom for awhile yesterday, we came home and I had some free time! I started stitching the borders on my May Take It Further block:
I'm home today and trying to get caught up on some cleaning and email! I do expect to have some stitching time later today.

Happy Mother's Day
I've quite busy helping my parents out and just haven't had time to start on my TIF block for May. I hope to get underway on it this week and I'm eager to make myself a new purse or two as well.
Anyway, I just wanted to take a moment to wish all the mom's out there a Happy Mother's Day.
